Bilateral treaty

Bilateral treaty

A bilateral treaty is a treaty strictly between two state parties. These two parties can be two states, or two international organizations, or one state and one international organization.

It is similar to a contract, so it is called contractual treaty.

For example:

The Camp David Accords between Egypt and Israel, signed in 1978.
